Will ovarian cysts recur? How to prevent them?

The reason for the recurrence of ovarian cysts is that surgery can only remove visible chocolate cysts, but cannot guarantee the complete removal of the hidden small chocolate cysts. And because the surgery itself is destructive, it will stimulate the growth of these residual chocolate cysts to a certain extent, so the recurrence rate after surgery is high. According to incomplete statistics, the recurrence rate is as high as 38%~51% 3 years after surgery. Therefore, supplementary treatment must be carried out after surgery to prevent recurrence.

Prevention methods:

1. Female friends should pay attention to hygiene during menstruation, and sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited during menstruation and after childbirth. The vulva and vagina should be kept clean.

2. To prevent ovarian cysts, women should pay attention to their daily diet. Tobacco and alcohol are extremely acidic substances. People who smoke and drink for a long time are very likely to have an acidic constitution. Women should eat more light food, lean meat, eggs, chicken and fish, etc. Do not eat too much salty and spicy food, and do not eat overheated, overcooled, expired or spoiled food.

3. Maintain a good mood, relieve stress appropriately, combine work and rest, and avoid excessive fatigue. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that stress leads to physical weakness due to overwork, which in turn causes decreased immune function, endocrine disorders, metabolic disorders in the body, and the deposition of acidic substances in the body. Stress can also lead to mental tension, causing qi stagnation, blood stasis, and internal toxic fire.

4. Strengthening physical exercise and improving physical fitness can also prevent ovarian cysts. Exercising more in the sun and sweating more can excrete acidic substances in the body with sweat to avoid the formation of an acidic constitution.

5. Live a regular life. People with irregular living habits and those who stay up late will aggravate the acidification of the body and easily cause ovarian cysts.

6. Conduct regular screenings to detect and diagnose early and treat early. If ovarian abnormalities are found but cannot be confirmed, regular follow-up is required. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, surgery should be performed as soon as possible. Malignant ovarian tumors should be treated with a combination of surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine.
